He came

by Keith D Allison

Promising to fill
the lonely chair within the room
with a morning light
a figure crouched in the corner
the room empty
nothing given, only touched
her body shivered
in the nakedness
the tear mourned in the existence

A sparse and haunting poem of disappointed hope and perhaps disillusionment. Striking use of symbolism.
